Re: New LCD Soundsystem album on the way!!!

haha I love Malkmus.....

Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks enlisted the help of Beck to produce their latest record, 'Mirror Traffic,' but that producer seat almost went to another high-profile producer: LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy.

"We never asked him but we've got mutual friends in New York so I thought about him," Malkmus tells Spinner. "I wasn't really aware of how big and successful he was, though. I like them and I think they're good but I didn't know they were this iconic band of the 2010s -- I still would've done it with him but, at that point, he was probably too busy."

Malkmus is more than pleased with Beck's work on the record, but he believes Murphy would have done the disc justice, too, since the pair of music mavens both possess the qualities he looks for in a producer.

"James seems to like all kinds of different music and he's a gearhead," Malkmus says. "I want somebody who's into gear and sound, and is a geek, and it seems like he is when I've talked to him about keyboards and recording stuff."

"He bleeds music," he adds. "That's the kind of people you want, not just somebody who's into music because it's fashionable or because they can get a bigger car; those people could be 86 percent into music but you want 186 percent -- he seems like that kind of guy."

But before Malkmus even had the chance to approach Murphy, Beck offered up his services -- an opportunity that was impossible to turn down.

"He's a workaholic, and somebody like that is good for producing," says Malkmus. "For somebody who makes music that jumps around, genre-wise, he remarkably has a lack of ADD. If it hadn't turned out well after the five/six days in the studio, we would've stopped. But it turned out well."

Malkmus was so happy with the collaboration in fact that he says he'd love to work with Beck again -- on a Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks record, of course (don't expect his former band, Pavement, to pull a Guided by Voices any time soon).

"There's nothing to be gained from that, there's no vibe for a new album and you've got to have a vibe," says Malkmus of Pavement heading back to the studio on the heels of their big reunion tour. "Guided by Voices must have a feeling, like they have something that's going to come alive in a room; I just don't think that would happen with Pavement."

"The reunion was totally rad and we had so much fun at those shows," he adds. "But to make one of those reunion albums is not my style."

Besides, Malkmus is busy pumping out his own music in his adopted hometown of Berlin, where he moved "for a life change" -- though he's yet to fully immerse himself in the local scene.

"If I should happen to find a studio or people to work with there, that would definitely be cool," he says. "But as it stands, I'm pretty much working in my house and it could be anywhere; I could be in Antarctica, I could be in Guantanamo Bay."

This may sound a bit mellow, but if you fancy a good mixing session then you would appreciate this. Haven't witnessed one before? Brace yourselves - James Murphy has got the magic touch. WNYU 89.1FM (NYC) give us a fantastic and intimate look into Murphy's DJing skills in a low-key radio station environment. Thanks for the cool footage WNYU!

James Murphy and Pat Mahoney of LCD Soundsystem will be taking over New York for a night at the House of Vans (25 Franklin St. Brooklyn, NY 11222) Tuesday November 1, 8PM - Midnight.
